Company law requires the acquisition and resulting beneficial interest to be notified; the filing reports Steyn Capital's total holding as 5.03% of the shares in issue. It says nothing about why the shares were bought or what the holder intends, so it is a fact about who owns the shares rather than a view on how the business is doing.
